Welcome to

Rouvy Blog

by: Eliška HarantováWith the upcoming release of the Augmented Routes, we are presenting a new feature called “Group Ride,” which brings you a new possibility of riding with your teammates, friends or other riders from all over the world. Our new technology is based on the augmented reality concept. The platform generates and tracks different 3D objects within real 2D videos. Stable and animated objects include riders, gates, checkpoints and more. The full description will be released tomorrow, November 1.

Group Rides - a New Multi-Rider Mode

How do you join a Group Ride?

Go to Rouvy app > Augmented Routes > choose the route and ride it in the “training mode.” You can move your position on the route to wherever you want. Or, you can use our new feature called “Find Rider.” For example, if you arrive late to the planned ride, you can simply use the button and type in the username of the leader of the ride, or anyone that you want to catch up to, and ride with him. Click the “FOLLOW” button and your position on the route will be moved next to this rider (the leader).

Does the route seem too hilly for you? No problem. Another option in the training mode is to change your “Reality Level.” The Reality Level is a tool, which allows you to change the level of true load. The default is 100%, which is a real effort in comparison to the outdoors. If you want to make the ride easier, you can set it to less (1- 99%).

We would like to show you how it works, so we created a schedule for team rides. You can join these rides during the first 10 days of November with the Rouvy team.

You don’t have to ride alone - you can try it with us!

So check the Rouvy schedule for team rides, choose the route and book the time for our Group Ride in your calendar! We are looking forward to riding with you! Join us, and enjoy your ride with the Rouvy team! You can find the schedule below, or you can check the events on our FB community group called “Rouvy Athletes.”

If you aren't sure about the time for these Group Rides - check it in this "Time zone converter".

Hello, yes, the UTC time it the same as a GMT time. If you are not sure about the time on Strava for the group ride, you can make sure above in article (here is UTC time) and you can check it for example here: https://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/.

I really would like to join a group ride on one of the rides planned above if time zone allows(have my eyes set on the Gavia if possible)my problem is I have no idea what UTC or PST means as far as how to figure out what the start time would be in the UK... Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, Cheers!
